The University of Otago does not require an initial deposit for most domestic students. However, international students typically need to pay a tuition fee deposit to secure their enrollment. This deposit is usually NZD $2,000–$3,000, depending on the program.
The amount is deducted from the total tuition fees. Some courses may have specific deposit requirements, so checking the university’s official website or contacting admissions is advisable. Payment deadlines vary, so applicants should confirm details upon receiving an offer letter.
